Protection mechanisms of the iron-plated armor of a deep-sea hydrothermal vent gastropod
Dear Colleagues,
I would like to bring your attention to our latest PNAS paper which
was just published on-line in Early Edition. This paper focused
on the protection mechanism of the unique snail (Crysomallon squamiferum) shell from deep-sea hydrothermal environment. It is an Open Access Article. You can download it freely by clicking HERE or the attachment.
Nanobrücken Nanomechanical Testing Workshop: Feb 24-26, 2010 at INM Saarbrücken
The Nanobrücken Nanomechanical Testing Workshop, Feb 24-26, 2010 at INM Saarbrücken in Germany, aims to bring together researchers from the international nanomechanical community in a forum that highlights both techniques and applications. The workshop features an outstanding lineup of keynote and invited speakers. We cordially invite you to attend and encourage you to participate with a contributed oral or poster presentation.
Problem in Abaqus
hii Friends..
i doing project on damage investigation in drilling of fiber reinforced plastics using Finite element approach Abaqus 6.8, i want to plot between torque and time. but i am not succeed. plz any one suggest me , how to get plot between torque & Time.
modeling cohesive element
hello,
i am modelling a concrete beam with FRP bonded to beam with the adhesive. i hav tried to simulate adhesive using cohesive element Abaqus(from manual) for the past 2 months, but am getting missing property definition for those elements.I am not sure the procedure I hav followed is correct, so please send me the procedure for modelling cohesive element and the contact between the adherent faces.

statistics about students in world universities
dear Friend
I am comparing italian universities with Russian ones with US and with Cuban ones. Then I need some figures.
I have been able for example to find that there are about 50% of students-workers in Russia, what about US?
I mean full time workers, not just part time.
But I need to know more about these questions:-
1) how did the number of students in the last 10 years vary? Increased?
2) how many students are doing economics or management - related subjects?
Urgent - Restarting Analysis due to Unexpected Computer Shutdown
Hi friends,
I am running a Abaqus Standard simulation for about 1.5
days. When I checked it now, the computer experienced a unexpected shutdown due
to power failure. I opened the CAE file and recovered the data. It still shows
that the simulation is running but it is actually not running.
How can I restart the analysis from the point where it
stopped. I am wary to click the restart under Edit Job because I am not sure if
that will cause the analysis to restart from time 0.
Urgently need advice on this. Thank you.
Samrt material
hello everyone
A question how is possible in the same material and in the same temprature we observe some different material properties? as we can see in shape alloy effect? I appreciate if somebody give me some clues as a light to shed the research way. thank you in advance.
PhD Winterschool on Dielectric Elastomer Transducers
I’ve just come back from a Winter School on Dielectric Elastomer Transducers, held at Monte Verità, Ascona, Switzerland, 10-16 January 2010. Lectures were given by various people, covering the theory of electromechanical interaction, design of devices, development of materials, and technologies of manufacturing. I was asked to give three lectures on the theory. I attach the slides of my lectures.
